What's trickier: high-profile espionage or marriage?

That seems to be the question at the heart of Prime Video's Mr. and Mrs. Smith, a new take on the story that first debuted as a TV series in 1996, then as a 2005 film starring Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Created by Atlanta's Francesca Sloane and Donald Glover, the upcoming series stars Glover and Maya Erskine (PEN15) as lonely strangers John and Jane. They've each landed jobs at a glamorous spy agency, where they'll be posing as a married couple in order to attract less attention. But amidst all the high-profile missions, car chases, and explosions, could they develop real feelings for one another?

The show's trailer teases this growing romance with shots of steamy kisses and confessions of love — all sandwiched between blowout arguments and awkward attempts to dispose of bodies. Oh, and the show promises an all-star cast too, with Paul Dano, Parker Posey, Wagner Moura, John Turturro, Ron Perlman, Michaela Coel, Alexander Skarsgård, Sharon Horgan, and Sarah Paulson.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith premieres Feb. 2 on Prime Video.
